Artwork Description

Appropriation of Bruegel's composition. Breugel was a 16th century art activist. His work protested the living conditions imposed by Spanish occupation. This painting protests Australia's importation of 75 million dollars of Brazilian timber annually between 2018 and 2023 with no guarantee that it was not illegally logged. President Balsinaro employed criminals to log the Amazon rainforest killing thousands of indigenous people or protesters who got in the way. The Tower of Babel is a symbol of the hubris of humanity playing God. Balsinaro told Brazillians he was ordained by God to log the Amazon.
